Enable DHCP on NIC

Author: Shane Boudreaux
Platform: Windows
Type: Windows Script

Description:

This script quickly enables DHCP on your NIC and echoes back whether or not it was successful.

As a network administrator, it is good to have a static IP address at the office. Much easier to use as a TFTP server if the IP is static. With a laptop, however, I've had to go into Network Properties and constantly change to DHCP when I move to different subnets. I wrote this as a quick and easy way of doing just that.

Scroll down to view the script.


strComputer = "."
Set objWMIService = GetObject("winmgmts:\\" & strComputer & "\root\cimv2")
Set colNetAdapters = objWMIService.ExecQuery _
("Select * from Win32_NetworkAdapterConfiguration where IPEnabled=TRUE")
For Each objNetAdapter In colNetAdapters
errEnable = objNetAdapter.EnableDHCP()
If errEnable = 0 Then
Wscript.Echo "DHCP has been enabled."
Else
Wscript.Echo "DHCP could not be enabled."
End If
Next
